Overview

Quantifying, qualifying, summarizing, and reporting cardiac functions observed during Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) studies are crucial components for devising effective cardiac therapy protocols. Evaluating the results of MR exams and including as much relevant information as possible in your reports can also significantly impact your workflow. A software program that enables analysis of key cardiac parameters from one station would help make your reports to referring physicians more comprehensive and streamline your department’s workflow.

By enabling efficient analysis of key cardiac parameters, CardiacVX1 from GE Healthcare allows for more comprehensive reports and a streamlined workflow.

CardiacVX enables you to import MR images into your AW Workstation where you can use a range of reproducible tools for reviewing & reporting. CardiacVX provides you with the capability to access multiple studies and multi-slice, multi-phase images, which can be displayed in cine mode to facilitate visualization. The program’s report input interface includes measurement tools that let you quickly and reliably complete clinical reports of an imaging exam.

System Requirements

Intended Use

The GE CardiacVX1 for MRI is
an analytical software tool, which provides reproducible tools for the review
and reporting of medical images. CardiacVX can import medical images from a MR
system and display them in a
viewing area on the computer screen. The viewing area allows the access to
multiple studies and series of multi-slice, multi-phase images. Multi-phase
sequences of images can be displayed in a cine mode to facilitate
visualization.

A report input interface is also available. Measurement tools on the
report interface make it possible to quickly and reliably fill out a complete
clinical report of an imaging exam. Available tools include: point, distance,
area, and volume measurement tools such as ejection fraction, cardiac output,
end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, and
volume flow measurements.
